The Missouri Department of Conservation is encouraging residents to participate in the department’s Free Fishing Days June 11th and 12th. During these days anyone may fish in Missouri without having to buy a fishing permit, trout permit, or trout park daily tag. Other fishing regulations do remain in effect during the MDC Free Fishing Days. These include limits on size and the number of fish an angler can keep. Special permits may also still be in place at some county, city, and private fishing areas. For more information on fishing in Missouri visit mdc.mo.gov/fishing.
